I recently received Compound Afternoon and Compound Blue from Fraterworks, and I can honestly say that both products exceeded my expectations!
As someone who enjoys creating DIY fragrances, I am always looking for high-quality materials that not only smell incredible but also provide versatility when blending. Compound Afternoon and Compound Blue were exactly that and honestly, even better than advertised.
Both compounds are incredibly well crafted, smooth, and immediately impressive. They have a level of quality and refinement that makes them enjoyable on their own while also offering plenty of creative possibilities for fragrance formulation. You can tell that a great deal of attention went into creating these materials.

Just as good as the original, if not, better
I’m a very familiar with LV Afternoon Swim and Compound Afternoon comes so close to the original, that i’ll just be buying this, instead. It really is that close. Infact, I actually like the opening a bit more. It’s more rich. Excellent job making a virtually identical, affordable clone!
